This is the definition of a rational number.
F(x) = 18-x^2 is a parabola having vertex at (0, 18) and opening downwards.
g(x) = 2x^2-9 is a parabola having vertex at (0, -9) and opening upwards.
By symmetry, let the x-coordinates of the vertices of rectangle be x and -x => its width is 2x.
Height of the rectangle is y1 + y2, where y1 is the y-coordinate of the vertex on the parabola f and y2 is that of g.
=> Area, A
= 2x (y1 - y2)
= 2x (18 - x^2 - 2x^2 + 9)
= 2x (27 - 3x^2)
= 54x - 6x^3
For area to be maximum, dA/dx = 0 and d²A/dx² < 0
=> 54 - 18x^2 = 0
=> x = √3 (note: x = - √3 gives the x-coordinate of vertex in second and third quadrants)
d²A/dx² = - 36x < 0 for x = √3
=> maximum area
= 54(√3) - 6(√3)^3
= 54√3 - 18√3
= 36√3.
Don't touch the center. It is already even.
Start anywhere by connecting a dotted line from one vertex to the next. To keep things so we know what we are talking about, go clockwise. Now you have 2 points that are Eulerized that were not before.
Skip and edge and do the same thing to the next two vertices. Those two become eulerized. Skip an edge and do the last 2.
Let's try to describe this better. Start at any vertex and number them 1 to 6 clockwise.
Join 1 to 2
Join 3 to 4
Join 5 to 6
I think 3 is the minimum.
3 <<<< answer
Answer:
A. 81
Step-by-step explanation:
Combine fractions, that equals 2/5 in your exponent. Three to the 2/5 power is 81. So answer A.
It's really important that you aim to understand how to do these problems yourself, rather than "pay" others to do them for you. Why not ask for "directions" or "guidance," instead of for "answers?"
This is a tricky question because it's not required that you have the full 12 beads on the string in every case. You could, for example, have 6 beads, 2 of which would be red, making the ratio of red beads 2 to 6, or 1 to 3.
What about 3 red beads in 9?
What about 1 red bead in 3?
Do these "answers" satisfy the requirement that the ratio of red beads to all beads is 1:3?
